From bowser to o pritchard? Lame. Should have been Luigi or Mario

Pritchard is the final boss in Super Mario Wonder, not enough people talk about this. Really wild that they anticipated this change that far ahead.

Can you imagine if Nintendo bankrolled Luigi through his trials just to hire him for his name?

Unfortunately, your princess is in another castle. There’s a reason they chose Bowser as CEO and not Peach or Mario or Luigi

Of course, my alternate reality is where Nintendo are the good guys.

I was just looking in the web to learn more about Devon Pritchard (the woman who becomes America’s next president as Nintendo of America) and found following line in another blog post article: economictimes.indiatimes.com/…/124139537.cms

She holds a Doctor of Law (JD) degree from Gonzaga University School of Law (1998–2001)

Doctor of Law (Wikipedia) - That explains a lot. Nintendo loves lawyers.

Is it weird that I misread that as gazonga twice before I got it right?

I’ll always remember him for Mario and Luigi being tied up in this image.

That is a good thing to an extent because doug bowser was the reason for most of nintendos current problems.
